Dear Donna,
You are between jobs which means you have an awful lot of time at your disposal. Why is the kitchen filthy, your laundry piled up and your bedroom a mess? You have no excuses! Really! Now get up out of your POÄNG and start cleaning!
Love,
Yourself
PS You really should start pursuing a job with greater gusto, honestly, you disgust me.

Some of us in bumpkinville
don’t know the meaning of
POÄNG
Enlightment, please.
Poang is a type of Ikea chair– kinda like a lounger
I know you’re the recipe meister, but my cousin in Oklahoma sent me one you might enjoy…
it’s probably one reason why
Oklahoma has a high incidence of obesity:
Strawberry pop cake:
One box yellow cake mix
One big box vanilla pudding mix
One small box vanilla pudding mix
One container cool whip
Three eggs
3 cups milk
1/3 cup oil
One can strawberry Shasta pop
Fresh strawberries
Mix cake mix, big box pudding, eggs, oil, 1 1/2 cups milk together. Bake in 9 x 13 glass cake pan until toothpick comes out clean and golden on top. Immediately upon taking out of oven poke holes all over cake and poor entire can of pop over cake. Cool completely.
Mix remaining 1 1/2 milk with small box pudding. Allow to thicken for three minutes. Fold in cool whip. Top cake with mixture and garnish with fresh strawberries.
It’s not like there are a lot of worthwhile jobs out there. Big layoffs at IBM, Microsoft, HP, et. al. continue to cast a negative tenor on the economy…
I wish I had saved more money during the boom times – I’d simply retire (for good).
I think I might try that cake– but closer to summer— it strikes me as a warm day treat.
Pop…hehe…they talk funny in Oklahoma.
Pop vs. Soda vs. Coke
Where I’m from originally
(Texas) carbonated beverages
are simply called a “Coke”.
“Give me a Coke, please.”
“Which kind?”
“A Dr. Pepper”.
It doesn’t make sense to people in other parts of the country, but…
Here’s the pop vs. soda vs.
Coke map. Isn’t it comforting
knowing that statisticians
figured all this out for us?

Good thing you added the definition of POÄNG. Without knowing myself I figured it was like keester, which would also fit the sentence 🙂
You know, I often send email reminders to myself – just not so antagonistic. At least you haven’t sassed yourself in response – that might be cause for concern.
Yeah, I should be nicer to myself! 🙂
